About Routemaster bus
50 Standing / Reception
50 Cabaret
Step aboard our vintage Routemaster bus and watch your party come alive in one of London's most unexpected venues. Parked in the courtyard behind The Old Bank of England on Fleet Street, this classic red double-decker has been lovingly preserved with its original signage and chrome details intact, creating an instant talking point for your guests. The bus comfortably holds up to 50 people for drinks receptions, with enough room for everyone to move between the lower and upper decks. We've kept the authentic tartan seating and added polished metal tables that catch the light streaming through the large windows during afternoon gatherings. As evening falls, the interior lighting transforms the space into something rather magical, with the vintage fixtures casting a warm glow across the original features. What makes our Routemaster particularly special for parties is how it works as both a self-contained venue and an extension of the main building. Groups often start their evening in the historic banking hall before discovering the bus in the courtyard, or use it as a quirky cocktail bar while the main celebration continues inside. The air conditioning keeps everyone comfortable year-round, and our bar staff can serve drinks directly from the bus, keeping the party flowing smoothly. Just a short walk from Temple Station, your guests will find us easily at 194 Fleet Street. The courtyard location means the bus offers a more intimate atmosphere away from the bustle of the main street, while still being right in the heart of legal London. For birthday parties, work celebrations, or any gathering where you want something genuinely different, our Routemaster provides a dose of London nostalgia with all the comfort your guests need for a brilliant night out.
